The Self-Assembly of Nano-Objects code (SANO-Grid) using Grid Interpolation technique: Application to epitaxial organic monolayers adsorbed on metal surfaces

Roussel T.J., Vega L.F., Consejo Superior de Investigaciones Científicas. (ICMAB-CSIC), ES

One of the main challenges is to precisely position the first molecular building blocks in the first layer of thin films in order to tune their hetero-epitaxial properties, or else to adjust the substrates for [...]

Multiscale Rheology: New Results for the Kinetic Scale

Kallemov B., H. Miller G., Mitran S., Trebotich D., Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, US

We present several new results on the kinetic, i.e., mesoscale, level of a continuum-kinetic-microscopic approach to multiscale modeling of complex fluids. We choose the microscopic level as Kramers’ bead-rod model for polymers, which we describe [...]

From Games and Films to Molecular Simulation and Design

Olguin C., Zhao W., Autodesk, Inc., US

Propelled by the multi-billion dollar game and film industries, CG software has evolved dramatically in sophistication. Effects range from realistic explosions to the chaotic movement driven by wind and other fluids. This paper describes our [...]

Tailoring Molecular Devices for its Electronic Properties

Lamba V., Engles D., Pati S.K., Haryana College of Technology & Management, Kaithal, IN

In present work we studied Conduction properties of nanoscale contacts DFT/NEGF approach. Such calculations give insight into details behind the conductance that is not readily available in experiments. For example, we may learn how the [...]

Imbibition dynamics of nano-particulate ink-jet drops on micro-porous media

Hsiao W.-K., Hoath S.D., Martin G.D., Hutchings I.M., Jones S., Chilton N., University of Cambridge, UK

Our study represents the first investigation of imbibition of ink-jet deposited nano-Cu colloid drops on a proprietary coated paper substrate. Using high speed imaging apparatus to capture the depsoition of ink-jet drops, the timescales of [...]

Expanding Capabilities of a Machine Vision System for Analysis of Drops-in-flight

Kipman Y., Mehta P., Wang S-W., ImageXpert Inc., US

Measuring in-flight characteristics of ink drops under different conditions can provide insight into relationships and interactions, helping drive system and consumable optimization for manufacturers of inkjet heads, head driver electronics, inks, and integrated printing and [...]
